Check out our sister brand, Kinship, for vet chat, a nutrition calculator, basic obedience training, and (much) more. So you're never flying solo in this pet parenting thing.
I found a new home! Plenty of my friends are looking for one too. Check out other pets at this shelter, or start a new search.

Here's what the humans have to say about me:
IDGSR Welcomes NIGEL into the safety of the rescue!!
THIS DOG IS FOSTERED IN TENNESSEE & AVAILABLE FOR TRANSPORT
**************
Happy Holidays! My name is Nigel and I'm a super handsome 2-3yr old male German Shepherd. I'm located near Nashville TN and will be available for transport to my forever home.
Here are some fun facts about me & my ideal home!
1. I love to run and play and explore and do all sorts of fun athletic things. I need to be adopted by someone who will keep me active!
2. I am very friendly with people & other dogs! I hope you have another pupper in the home for me to be best friends with and play with all the time!
3. My ideal home is with an active person or family & with someone who will love me and give me the best life! If you have kids, I'd do best with ones over the age of 10yrs old.
4. It would be best to train me in basic & advanced obedience training. I'm super smart and will learn anything you can teach me. Also, it will help us bond!
5. Some of my favorite pastimes include watching ESPN, having crazy zoomies in the backyard, listening to 80s rock music, dreaming of going on hiking adventures, and working on my fitness. I'm an athletic dude!
6. If you are looking for a loving, friendly, playful, energetic, athletic, and awesome new companion - I'm your guy!
